To finish your tip, remove irregularities and taper the corners, wrap
a small band of 600 grit Wet-Or-Dry sandpaper around the cork end of
a staple, and use it gently to get where you need to go.

If you're a bassoonist, substitute 80 grit sandpaper...

The Tone is a castle in the air.
Imagination is its architect.
Nerves carry out the plans.
Muscles are the laborers.
The soul inhabits it.
